KitchenAid Wall Oven Code 1c32: Control board and its connections

What 1c32 means

On KitchenAid wall ovens and combination wall ovens, 1c32 is another lower-case code for the oven control and its wiring. When it appears, the control has detected something it cannot work around, and the oven typically shuts down its heating functions. Owners see the code in the display instead of a clock or a cooking time. It often appears just after a cycle is started.

Common causes of 1c32

Oven control that is giving out
Loose or damaged wiring around the control

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Press Cancel to see whether the display clears. 2. Cut power at the breaker for about a minute and turn it on again. 3. Test with a low-temperature bake. 4. If 1c32 returns, stop and book a visit. 5. Note the display for the technician.

! Why to stop there

A wiring problem is much cheaper than a new control, which is why we test first.

Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
